For this specifically, “Traitorous Critic Fallacy”. More broadly, an Ad Hominem argument.

I was mostly joking, but I did get some oily/greasy dust in my mouth, and it tasted kind of burnt and spicy, which is why I came up with “steak seasoning”
But yes, I do actually inadvertently get limestone in my mouth often, but unfortunately (or fortunately) it really doesn’t taste like anything. Maybe I will have to sample a larger size.
I might ask our geologist if she “taste tests” the rocks, according to what another commenter said…
I work in limestone quarries every day. The dust and grit gets everywhere, and almost every day I will get some in my mouth. Sometimes pieces that are about the size of a skittle somehow make it into my mouth (no. They do not taste like lime Skittles)
The taste isn’t the problem, it’s the gritty texture that makes it feel like you’re grinding away at your teeth. The taste is similar to steak seasoning. I keep some unflavored gum with me and chew it when I get some in my mouth. This allows me to enjoy the salty/savory flavor while getting past the horrible texture. If only they made steak-flavored chewing gum.
Lost/reduced wages from time off work, and health insurance doesn’t cover everything.
In my experience, the Mr. Clean ones hold up much better. Generic melamine sponges tear too easily.
But maybe I’m just getting the wrong generic ones. I’ve tried two or three different generic brands and they all sucked
How can you expect yourself to integrate well into any conversation when you’re fixated on “well technically…”
If 99% of people colloquially agree that A = B, then it doesn’t really matter if ‘A’ and ‘B’ are really the same thing if everybody knows what we’re talking about. It’s the most obnoxious shit when someone tries to argue in this way, and you’re not convincing anybody or adding anything meaningful to the discussion.
I have a Mazda CX-5. The track seek buttons are counterintuitive IMO, and the Adaptive Cruise distance buttons are too.
Next track is UP, previous track is DOWN. Not like going down a list.
Adaptive Cruise control is UP to increase distance, DOWN to decrease. This seems like it would make sense, but I would prefer it the other way. UP to get closer, DOWN to pull back the distance
I’ve bought pretty expensive equipment, tube amplifier, many fancy headphones, optical DACs. A library full of FLAC files. I even purchased a $500 portable DAP. I’ve never been able to reliably tell a difference between FLAC and 320k MP3 files. At this point, it really doesn’t concern me anymore either, but I at least like to see my fancy tube amp light up.
I will say, though, $300 seems to be the sweet-spot for headphones for me.
Hope like hell that my 2500w inverter generator can start my HVAC blower so I can run the gas heat
Anker has been hit-or-miss for me. It either craps out early, or lasts much longer than it has any right to. They’re still my go-to for cables, because I usually lose or give many of them away before they have a chance to show their worth
A long time ago when they used the 1-5 star system, I think it was
In a similar vein, I’d like to recommend Skeptics Guide To The Universe. Mostly focused on science news and critical thinking. I believed they’ve interviewed Sean Carroll several times in the past as well.
It’s been around for 18 years, and they have a very rigid format that may not be for everyone, but I personally really like the organization of it
I don’t say this to promote fossil fuels whatsoever, but different fossil fuels are better or worse in different ways. Natural gas IIRC is one of the worst fossil fuels for greenhouse gas emissions short-term, especially with leaks and partially combusted fuel, but it dissipates much faster than the alternatives, with much lower CO2 emissions as well (something like 7 year half-life vs a thousand years). It’s definitely not clean and comes with its own set of problems, but let’s not assume all fossil fuels are created equal.
I am 100% for switching away from all fossil fuels, and I don’t like natural gas being advertised as “clean”, but I feel this is important to note.
I used to get really bad ingrown toenails, I had a podiatrist cut about 1/4 of that toenail out so it can’t grow back in that spot. I don’t remember it being very expensive at all. But this was 10 years ago
Thanks! Glad to be here
I’ve had to take my PS2 controllers apart to clean them when I was like 11. Have some faith in yourself. At least they don’t have the spring-triggers like the following generations, unless your aftermarket ones do.
Also, this soldering job would not be hard at all. It can be done with a $1 flea market iron. Could probably re-use the old solder if you’re careful about it.
I almost found this out the hard way. I think on the Cisco equipment, it’s something like: Hold for 2 seconds to cycle power. Hold for 5 seconds to wipe config.
Our IT guy nearly had a heart attack when, over the phone, I asked if I should press the little “Reset” on the back.
Cook your own dog? No child should ever have to do that. Dogs should be raw! And living!
